Iran ‘Untuned’ movie applies to attend 2017 Fajr Fest

Iranian film ‘Untuned’ directed by Amir Pourkian has filled up the application form to attend the 35th Fajr International Film Festival (FIFF).

‘Untuned’ is a social film that follows the story of Arash, an ex-addict who is living with his mother and working with his friend at a coffee shop.

Arash’s father, who has left the country years ago, gets in touch with him through the social media and starts planning to come back unaware of the problems that lie ahead.  

Established in 1982, Fajr International Film Festival is an event that celebrates cultural exchange, displays creative achievements of highly acclaimed cineastes and pays tribute to local and international films.

Since its establishment, Fajr International Film Festival has played a vital role in the development of the Iranian Cinema.

Supervised by Iran’s Ministry of Culture, the festival hosts veteran directors and new filmmakers from Iran and across the world every year.

The 35th International Fajr Film Festival is scheduled to take place in the country’s capital of Tehran from April 21 through 28, 2017.
